Don’t Bash Addabbo

Dear Editor;

I would like to address Bag of Mail writer Scott Winick on the whereabouts of our Councilman elect Joseph Addabbo. Where was our current Councilman Al Stabile would have been a more appropriate question. Joe and his bride Dawn were in Arizona on a well-deserved vacation. As far as representing him, that job fell on Betty Braton, Pat McCabe and myself. Betty and Pat assisted in enlisting aid to feed the rescuers.

As far as myself, I don't remember seeing you Scott on any of the hose lines or helping in the removal of the many unfortunate people who lost their lives that day. Or did you maybe contact any of the families to assist in their problems from our neighborhood. As for all the politicians who showed their faces on that terrible day, I don't think they did half as much as Joe's reps. Also, who had you write this letter? Your arguments sound awfully familiar, Lew? Let's at least give Joe a chance once he is in office. I think we will all be pleasantly surprised.
